    Is this the incident with the kids in a double buggy getting clipped by a car, or is it another accident?

    @Ted Murray: until the investigation is carried out let’s call it a collision and not an accident.

    @Ted Murray: Around 90% of road collisions are caused by human error. The rest are by accident. If you know so much about this “accident” then why don’t you help the Investigation team?

    @Ted Murray: it’s an insult to the families and friends of those who were killed or seriously injured by dangerous and careless drivers to say ” ah sure it was only an accident”..
